We hate to say it, but it’s almost rain season again in Portland! 🥲 Don’t worry, though—we have some tips to wash your raincoat properly and maintain its waterproof quality!

1. **Check the Care Label**: Always start by reading the care instructions.
2. **Remove Dirt and Debris**: Shake out any loose dirt and use a soft brush for stubborn spots.
3. **Use Mild Detergent**: Opt for a gentle detergent designed for technical fabrics—avoid fabric softeners!
4. **Gentle Cycle**: Wash on a gentle cycle with cold water to prevent damage.
5. **Air Dry**: Hang your raincoat to air dry—no dryers, please!
6. **Reapply Waterproofing**: Consider using a waterproofing spray after washing to keep it rain-ready!

Keep your raincoat in top shape, and stay dry this season! ☔️
